Liberal Party of Hong Kong

The Liberal Party is a conservative political party in Hong Kong that was founded on 12 December 1991. The party was founded by a group of conservative politicians, businessmen, and professionals who opposed the pro-democracy camp in favor of a pro-Beijing stance. In 2004, the party overtook the Democratic Party of Hong Kong as the second largest party in the Legislative Council, but it lost all its directly elected seats in 2008. By 2016, the party was still in trouble, having only four seats as one of its legislators stepped down.
